History, traditions, and legends in the woods of Maremma

The wonderful woods that surround Tirli, of chestnut and oak, that grow wonderfully lush, are inhabited by boar, hare, fox, deer and pheasant. Here you can have long walks to regenerate and enjoy wonderful panoramas.
In these woods is the Eremo di Sant’Anna, a religious building of rectangular layout, even today much frequented by believers and particularly women.

In the streets of Tirli they play Palla 21

Old game of tradition, played in the small towns of Tuscan Maremma, in the provinces of Siena and Grosseto. This game gets its name from the characteristic exclamation “eh” which the pitcher and battter utter to start the game. The game is won by the team that wins two out of three sets, to win a set 21 points are needed. For a playing field the street, a square, or any street wide enough are chosen and the game is on.
The ball of the game is a lead ball, covered in thick woollen yarn, in turn covered by a piece of soft tough leather that is carefully hand-sown. People organize tournaments and games, and the importance of this sports discipline is nationally recognized insofar as to be included in the Coni and the Italian Pallapugno Federation
